"I-couldn't-think-of-a-name" park



I haven't thought of exactly where this is set, maybe Finland or somewhere cold. It would be interesting to have a race in a major championship on a track where it is required to remove the snow from the track, the lower temperatures would affect grip, so on this track (despite the fast corners), about the usual amount of downforce would be needed. Also, the track would be almost dead flat.

General setup guesstimates
  • Long top gears (for the long straight), and the others on the short side.
  • Moderate downforce (with the high speed corners, slow bits at the end and the low track temperature.
  • Hard suspension (only gradual elevation changes).

About 5 or 6 km in length.

Comments, critisism, suggestions are more than welcome. Also, if you want your country to hold an F1 GP and you want to build this plan because you hate Herman Tilke, post here and I will tell you where to post the cheque to.

The first thing that came to mind whe I saw that was 'Karting Track' I cant really have a proper opinion on it because of the wideness of the track.

My thought too.

However, everything until T9 is very nice, the rest is a bit too twisty.

The width isn't to scale. It was just because of the software I used to draw it (GeneRally Track Editor).

What were you thinking when you were drawing turn 9 onwards?

It's alright. Turn 1 looks good. Few bumps and it'd be like a mirrored Tamburello, unless I've got the scale completely wrong

Hm, it's kind of hard to imagine the real track, because the track map given seems oversimplified because the track is painted so wide. How tight are the corners? Is the section from Turn 9 to Turn 14 really as tight as it seems?

It's definately easier to see what the track would be like now.

It's a Brands Hatch-looking kart track.
